15:55Now PlayingA self-styled “elder millennial” recently recounted being charged $41,000 for a hospital stay under 24 hours to treat high blood pressure—without surgery, scans, or serious intervention—calling the bill “extortion” despite already paying $4,400 out-of-pocket with insurance. He was billed $17,000 for lab work, $11,000 for a brief ER visit, and hundreds for minimal physical therapy interactions, sparking outrage over America's for-profit healthcare system.
Jimmy’s comparisons to other wealthy nations reveal the U.S. spends nearly double per capita on healthcare while producing worse health outcomes, lower life expectancy, and higher infant mortality. He argues the system is structured to enrich providers and insurers at the public’s expense, with even insured patients facing unaffordable costs.
